We should have some resort credits to work with, hoping to use those for sandwiches / some drinks around the pools. But if we could avoid spending hundreds on dinners for 3 nights, would be very good.
Save money by going to ABC, Safeway, Costco etc and buying a cheap cooler and your booze. Maybe a few things of bread, peanut butter etc and keep that in the room. Put it in your own cups when heading to the pool as food and drinks there are extreme.
